34 World Wide Gum Earl Coombs (not Combs)
 
Posted By: <b>cmoking</b><p>The 34 World Wide Gum card spells Earl Combs name with two Os - Coombs. The card is identical to his 33 Goudey card, except for the spelling of the name. So it seems to me it should be more difficult to make an error, I mean didn't they just use the same image with the same words and everything? Well, I'm guessing no one knows these days, but I still thought it was interesting. <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1120275893.JPG">

Posted By: <b>Elliot</b><p>That is interesting....never noticed it before. They also spelled the name wrong on the reverse. Another point is that both companies left the extra "e" off of the end of his first name.
